[ laughter ] >> jimmy: but you -- that's not the accent you use in the show. >> it's not. i do -- i play a southern cop. >> jimmy: yeah. >> a georgian cop. >> jimmy: now, how would you get cast as a -- [ with british accent ] -- southern cop? >> well -- [ laughter ] >> jimmy: like maybe -- i was working on it, yeah, yeah. >> i was -- i was -- my son had just been born. he was three days old. i hadn't slept. and this script came through. i put myself on tape. and i don't think it was the accent that got it 'cause it was probably terrible. it was the fact that -- >> jimmy: you looked like a zombie. >> i looked like i'd survived a zombie -- [ laughter ] yeah. that was it. >> jimmy: you survived a zombie apocalypse. that's what having babies is all about. yeah, after three days -- >> that's it. >> jimmy: yeah, i survived a zombie apocalypse. yeah. but it's great, though. you do an amazing job. congrats. >> thank you. >> jimmy: it couldn't be -- it couldn't be bigger. i mean, this is -- but it's a

tricky thing because you can't slip into a british accent or else you'd take us right out of the whole show. >> well, yeah, i mean -- yeah, that wouldn't help. but -- >> jimmy: no, yeah. [ light laughter ] >> i mean, i was asked by frank darabont, who created the show along with robert kirkman and gale anne hurd and amc. he just said, "would you do it?" you know? i've got enough problems on my plate with the zombies, so let's forget about the dialect. so he said, "would you stay in all the time?" and that's what happened. i mean, 85 -- >> jimmy: what happens when you visit home? >> well, when i come home, my wife -- my wife and kids just think i'm crazy. i have two children. one's 5, and one's 3 years old, and they just don't get it. they're like, "what are you doing, dad?" >> jimmy: she's like -- [ in british accent ] "honey, we need to change the baby's nappy." and you go -- [ in southern accent ] "we got to change the baby's diaper, woman." yeah, yeah. [ laughter and applause ] >> that's it. >> jimmy: and that's what happens all night long. >> i'm married to dick van dyke. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: my accent's not very good, yeah. >> no, it's great. >> jimmy: exactly. thank you. i'm working on that. but you did get busted though once.

where you were celebrating on the set? >> yeah, it was my birthday in september. and i came out of dialect. >> jimmy: everyone's throwing you a big party. >> everybody's just -- well, just before the first take, they all started singing "happy birthday." and i thought, "well, look, i'll treat them to a little bit of my dialect." and they just wouldn't have it. all of these people are like, "who've you come as?" they even -- they feel really unsettled just -- i mean, i think that this is a terribly unconvincing accent i'm doing now because i spend so much of my time in dialect, you know? >> jimmy: your actual own dialect. but they were like, "you're lying to us. you're not one of us." [ light laughter ] >> no, i know. well, it was. i mean, i remember doing the press after the first season. and eddie, one of the head grips, he just was so shocked. he just said, "what?" you know -- and it's also -- the big barrier for me, when i do this, is just ordering a coffee. you know what i mean? it's just getting past that point. but i've got this schizophrenic life where i sort of fly into this country. they give me a new currency.

they give me cowboy boots. and -- and a gun. >> jimmy: all of a sudden, you're matthew bourne. you go, "who am i anymore?" yeah. >> exactly, it's the -- it's the freakiest experience. but, you know, it sort of worked for me. >> jimmy: well, we have "walking dead" -- this is the third season right now. the first two were -- i mean, they're major successes. i can't even -- the show's so popular that there's a show after "walking dead" called "the talking dead." >> that's right, yeah. >> jimmy: where you call in to chris hardwick, who's a friend of our show. we love that guy. >> yeah, he's a great guy. >> jimmy: oh, he's phenomenal. then you call in, and they just have discussions about the episode they just saw. >> yeah. >> jimmy: it's that big of a show. >> it's cool. well, that was one of the great things -- when we found out that people kind of watched the show together in groups and have a dialogue afterwards, i mean, it reminded me of when i was a kid and i went to see "indiana jones" and those kind of amazing, sort of, popcorn movies. >> jimmy: yeah. >> and when we get it right, when we get the alchemy right on the show, it really does sort of charge people up, you know? and they put themselves into these characters' stories. >> jimmy: so, this sunday, season three, the opening -- we

were talking backstage -- is -- there's no dialogue for five minutes. >> no. it's a beautiful way to start. i mean, it's so -- i mean -- >> jimmy: cinematic? >> yeah. >> jimmy: you can say it. you're allowed to say it. do you want me to say it? >> yeah, please say it. >> jimmy: it's very cinematic. >> it's very cinematic. [ light laughter ] that's what we're trying to do. >> jimmy: yeah, that's what you were trying -- yeah. you're trying to put on a good show. make some good quality television. >> yeah, that's it. but it is. i loved it because it tells a story visually. there's no dialogue. it's five minutes, and you find out exactly where these characters are in time because of it, you know? and it's a beautiful way of describing the beginning. >> jimmy: well, we have a -- we have a clip here of andrew lincoln and the rest of the cast killing some walkers. check it out. [ growling ] [ yelling ] [ snarling ]

[ applause ] and then, there you go right there. there you go. finally, it all comes around. [ applause ] >> well, actually in santa barbara, we got out cameron crowe, who is the guy who put us two together in that film. >> jimmy: i mean, that's my man, cameron crowe. and i actually heard that when they shot that scene, because i didn't know if they could clear your song, they had fishbone's "boning in the boneyard." [ laughter ] >> is that right? [ light laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah, that was the song that we played -- that would have been a different movie if they played that, yeah, yeah. [ light laughter ] but they didn't know if you were going to say yes or no. and it turned out you were a great guy and you said yes. and then, movie -- cinema history was made. and gosh, the record -- i mean, i'd say, "sledgehammer" the video -- to "sledgehammer," which you'll see in this book and this box set. that must have -- i would never have done that in my life. 'cause it would take too long

for me. >> it was about a month all together, but a week of filming. it was all done the old fashioned way, frame by frame. and there was fruit, which was fine, and there was fish, which on day two -- [ light laughter ] -- under the lights -- it was very smelly. [ light laughter ] >> jimmy: you don't want that. no, not at all. i mean -- but you can tell, every frame, it's not, like, done in slow motion. it was every frame by frame. because you're like -- ♪ yeah. >> brilliant director, stephen johnson, had come up with this way of just copying yourself so that you can get this sort of animation so that your mouth is roughly in the right position 'cause that's quite hard to get right. >> jimmy: interesting, so at one point, he's like, "all right, we're just going to shoot a frame of peter right now. you're going, 'ah.'" >> "ah." >> jimmy: yeah. >> yeah, i looked at the video, so i've done one just mouthing the words. and then, we sort of freeze frame it and i try and copy the mouth position.

but then, you get sort of things like clouds painted across. so, they scrape off, you know, one cloud and then, move it along a little bit. and then, the next one. >> jimmy: and you're just going like, "ah, why did i do this?" [ light laughter ] but boy, it turned out to be great.

so, it's sort of like videos plus witness equals change. that's the theory. >> jimmy: i love that. thank you for doing that. >> i appreciate that.
